This plan review is based on regulations enforced by the Building Department. You may have other corrections based on laws and ordinance by the Planning Department, Engineering Department, Fire Department or other departments. Clearance from those departments may be required prior to the issuance of a building permit. Present California law mandates that residential construction comply with the 2001 edition of the California Building Code (Title 24), which adopts the following model codes: 1997 UBC, 2000 UPC, 2000 UMC and 1999 NEC (all effective 11/1/02). The above regulations apply to residential construction, regardless of the code editions adopted by ordinance. The following items listed need clarification, modification or change. All items must be satisfied before the plans will be in conformance with the cited codes and regulations. Per Sec. 106.4.3, 1997 Uniform Building Code, the approval of the plans does not permit the violation of any state, county or city law. To speed up the recheck process, please note on this list (or a copy) where each correction item has been addressed, Le., plan sheet number, specification section, etc. Be sure to enclose the marked up list when you submit the revised plans.

Domestic (potable) Use Ensure that the meter proposed by the owner/developer is not oversized. Oversized meters are inaccurate during low-flow conditions. If it is oversized, for the life of the meter, the City will not accurately bill the owner for the water used. All single family dwelling units received "standard" 1" service with 38" service. 5 Rev. 7l14KlO BUILDING PLANCHECK CHECKLIST qST 2ND 3RD If owner/developer proposes a size other than the “standard”, then owner/developer must provide potable water demand calculations, which include total fixture counts and maximum water demand in gallons per minute (gpm). A typical fixture count and water demand worksheet is attached. Once the gpm is provided, check against the “meter sizing schedule” to verify the anticipated meter size for the unit. Maximum service and meter size is a 2” service with a 2” meter. If a developer is proposing a meter greater than 2, suggest the installation of multiple 2 services as needed to provide the anticipated demand. (manifolds are considered on case by case basis to limit multiple.trenching into the street). Irrigation Use (where recycled water is not available) All irrigation meters must be sized via irrigation calculations (in gpm) prior to approval. The developer must provide these calculations. Please follow these guidelines: 1. If the project is a newer development (newer than 1998), check the recent improvement plans and observe if the new irrigation service is reflected on the improvement sheets. If so, at the water meter station, the demand in gpm may be listed there. Irrigation services are listed with a circled ”I”, and potable water is typically a circled “W. The irrigation service should look like: r\ STA 1+00 Install 2” service and r-l 5 1.5: meter (estimated 100 gpm) 2. If the improvement plans do not list the irrigation meter and the service/meter will be installed via another instrument such as the building plans or grading plans (w/ a right of way permit of course), then the applicant must provide irrigation calculations for estimated worst-case irrigation demand (largest zone with the farthest reach). Typically, Larry Black has already reviewed this if landscape plans have been prepared, but the applicant must provide the calculations to you for your use. Once you have received a good example of irrigation calculations, keep a set for your reference. In general the calculations will include: 0 Hydraulic grade line 0 Elevation at point of connection (POC) 0 Pressure at POC in pounds per square inch (PSI) 0 Worse case zone (largest, farthest away from valve 0 Total Sprinkler heads listed (with gpm use per head) 0 Include a 10% residual pressure at point of connection 3. In general, all major sloped areas of a subdivision/project are to be irrigated via separate irrigation meters (unless the project is only SFD with no HOA). As long as the project is located within the City recycled water BUILDING PLANCHECK CHECKLIST 1ST 2ND 3R0 service boundary, the City intends on switching these irrigation services/meters to a new recycled water line in the future. 0 0 12c. Irrigation Use (where recycled water is available) * I 1. Recycled water meters are sized the same as the irrigation meter above. 2. If a project fronts a street with recycled water, then they should be connecting to this line to irrigate slopes within the development. For subdivisions, this should have been identified, and implemented on the improvement plans. Installing recycled water meters is a benefit for the applicant since they are exempt from paying the San Diego County Water Capacity fees. However, if they front a street which the recycled water is there, but is not live (sometimes they are charged with potable water until recycled water is available), then the applicant must pay the San Diego Water Capacity Charge. If within three years, the recycled water line is charged with recycled water by CMWD, then the applicant can apply for a refund to the San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA) for a refund. However, let the applicant know that we cannot guarantee the refund, and they must deal with the SDCWA for this. // 0 13.

INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION This report presents the results of our preliminary soil investigation for proposed additions to an axisting residential structure located at 2440 Buena Vista Circle, in the city of Carlsbad, California. The site location is shown on Figure No. 1, c It is our understanding that the subject project will consis! of extending the footprint of the existing single story structure and adding a second story. A new garage will also be constructed. The additions will be of wood-frame construction. New loads will generally be supported by new shallow foundations. Most of the existing footings will be replaced by new, relocated footings. However, the continuous footings underlying the northeastern corner of the existing structure will receive slightly increased loads. Concrete slab-on-grade and raised wood floor systems are anticipated for the garage and living area additions, respectively. - c c To assist in the preparation of this report, we were provided with a site plan, dated February 27, 2002 and an undated foundation plan, both prepared by Roy R. Blackford Architect. Site configuration, and the approximate locations of our subsurface explorations are shown on Plate No. 1. e \ c 2. PROJECT SCOPE c The investigation consisted of: sudace reconnaissance, subsurface exploration, obtaining representative disturbed and undisturbed samples, laboratory testing, analysis of the field and laboratory data, and preparation of this report. More specifically, the intent of this analysis was , to: a) Explore the subsurface conditions to the depths influenced by the proposed construction. c Rick and Madeline McElroy January 21,2003 Page 2 Proposed McElroy Residence Additions SCS&TNo. 0211181-1R b) Evaluate the engineering properties of the various strata that may influence the proposed development, including bearing capacities, expansion characteristics and settlement potentials. c) Evaluate the suitability of existing footings to support new loads. d) Address potential construction conditions that may be encountered due to subsurface conditions, or groundwater, and provide recommendations concerning these conditions. e) Develop geotechnical engineering criteria for site preparation. f) Recommend an appropriate foundation system for the type of structure anticipated and develop geotechnical engineering design criteria for the recommended foundation system. 3. FINDINGS 3.1 SITE DESCRIPTION The project site is located south of and adjacent to Buena Vista Circle in the city of Carlsbad, California. The site is bordered by Buena Vista Circle to the north and developed residential properties to the east, south and west. The site is currently occupied by a single-story residence and associated improvements, including a pool, a spa, wood decks and concrete flatwork. The site is nearly level, with overall topographic relief of less than about 2 feet. Vegetation consists of typical residential landscaping, including grass lawns, shrubs and trees. 3.2 SOIL DESCRIPTION The subject site is underlain by fill, topsoil and native soils. Fill deposits consist of dark reddish- brown, moist to very moist, medium dense, silty sand with trace of gravel. The fill extends to a depth of about 2 feet below existing grade. The fill is underlain by approx/mately one foot of topsoil consisting of dark feddish-brown, moist to very moist, loose to medium dense, silty sand with trace of gravel. The surficial soils are underlain by native soil consisting generally of gray, very moist to wet, medium stiff to stiff, silty clay. The uppermost one foot of the-native soil was found to be wet and soft to medium stiff. 3.3 EXISTING FOOTINGS An existing footing was exposed in Test Pit No. 2. The footing extends to'a depth of 24 inches, is 9 inches thick, and appears to be 12 inches wide. The footing is founded on topsoil deposits. 4. CONCLUSIONS In general, no geotechnical conditions were encountered that would preclude the construction of the additions as presently proposed, provided the recommendations presented herein are followed. Rick and Madeline McElroy c Proposed McNroy Residence Addiiions ' January 27,2003 Paae 3 SCS&TNo. 0277781-7R e The site is underlain by about 3 feet of combined fill and topsoil deposits. The topsoil is in a loose to medium dense condition, while the fill encountered in the test pits was classified as medium dense. Due to the lack of documentation and uncertainty regarding methods utilized to place the fill, it is our opinion that the fill and topsoil deposits are unsuitable, in their present condition, for the support of the proposed additions. In order to mitigate this condition, it is recommended that new footings extend into native soils. The uppermost 12 inches of existing soils underlying the proposed g,arage slab and exterior slabs-on-grade should be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction. The native soils underlying the surficial soils are very highly expansive, and the upper foot is soft to medium stiff. Due to this condition, heavier than typical foundation reinforcement, as well as greater than typical concrete slab-on-grade thickness and reinforcement, are recommended. c e 7 c c An additional consideration is the condition of the existing footings. As exposed in Test Pit No. 2, the footings are undersized relative to the very highly expansive soil conditions, and are founded in loose to medium dense topsoil deposits. It is recommended that existing footings not be used for the support of new loads unless they are underpinned as discussed in Section - , 5.2.3. Furthermore, strong consideration should be given to underpinning of any existing footings that will continue to support existing loads. It should be recognized that the presence of under-designed footings may result in a higher risk of differential movement between the additions and the existing structure. This condition should be evaluated by the project structural engineer. - c c 5. RECOMMENDATIONS 5.1 GRADING c 5.1 .I Site Preparation Site preparation should begin with the demolition of existing improvements as needed, and the removal of the resulting debris, as well as any existing vegetation and deleterious matter from the areas of the site to be graded or that will support new improvements. 5.1.2 Compressible Soil Removal It is recommended that the uppermost 12 inches of existing soils undwlying proposed interior and exterior slabs-on-grade be compacted to at least 90 percent relative , compaction, based on the ASTM D1557-00 laboratory test procedure. I I c- Rick and Madeline McElroy Proposed,McElroy Residence Additions January 2 1,2003 Paae 4 SCS&TNo. 0211181-1R c c c c ~~ ~~ ~~ -- ~~ 5.1.3 Compaction and Method of Filling All fill placed at the site should be compacted to a relative compaction of at least 90 percent. Fills should be placed at or slightly above optimum moisture content, in lifts 6 to 8 inches thick, wifh each lift compacted by mechanical means. Fills should consist of approved earth material, free of trash or debris, roots, vegetation, or other materials determined to be unsuitable by our soil technicians or project geologist. Fill material sh,ould be free of rocks or lumps of soil in excess of 6 inches in maximum dimension. Utility trench backfill within 5 feet of structures and beneath pavements should be compacted to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction. All grading and fill placement should be performed in accordance with the City of Carlsbad Grading Ordinance, the Uniform Building Code, and the Recommended Grading Specifications and Special' Provisions attached hereto as Appendix A. 5.1.4 Surface Drainage Adequate surface drainage is imperative due to the very highly expansive native soils. The drainage around the proposed building should be designed to collect and direct surface water away from proposed structure and improvements toward appropriate drainage facilities. Rain gutters that discharge runoff away from the building ye recommended. * The ground around the proposed structure should be graded so that surface water flows rapidly away from the structure without ponding. In general, we recommend that the ground adjacent to a structure slope away at a gradient,of at least 2 percent. Densely vegetated areas where runoff can be impaired should have a minimum gradient of at least 5 percent within the first 5 feet from the structure. Due to the very highly expansive characteristics of I the foundation soils, drought-resistant landscaping is strongly suggested. Drainage patterns approved at the time of fine grading should be maintained throughout the life of the proposed structure. Site irrigation should be limited to the minimum necessary to sustain landscape growth. Should excessive irrigation, impaired drainage, or unusually high 7 c rainfall occur, adverse groundwater conditions could develop. 5.1.5 Earthwork All earthwork and grading contemplated for site preparation should be accomplished in accordance with the attached Recommended Grading Specifications and Special Provisions (see Appendix A). All special site preparation recommendafions presented in the sections above will supersede those in the standard Recommended Grading Specifications. All c c c c c c .- I Rick and Madeline McElroy Proposed McElroy Residence Additions January 21,2003 Paae 5 SCS&T NO. 0277787-IR embankments, structural fill and fill should ,be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction at or slightly over optimum moisture content. Utility trench backfill within 5 feet of. the proposed structure should be compacted to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction. The maximum dry density of each soil type should be determined in accordance with ASTM Test D 1557-00, Method A or C. 5.2 FOUNDATIONS 5.2.1 General New shallow foundations may be utilized for the support of the proposed improvements. The footings should have a minimum depth of 30 inches below lowest adjacent finish pad grade (below garage slab subgrade or residence crawl space subgrade) and should extend at least 6 inches into medium stiff to stiff native soils. Based on our findings, typical footing depths will be about 3 feet below the crawl space subgrade surface and about 4% feet below existing exterior pad grade. A minimum width of 12 and 24 inches is recommended for continuous and isolated footings, respectively. A bearing capacity of 1500 pounds per- square-foot (psf) may be assumed for said footings. The bearing capacity may be increased by 113 when considering wind or seismic forces. 5.2.2 Reinforcement Both exterior and interior continuous footings should be reinforced with at least two No. 5 bars positioned near the bottom of the footing and at least two No. 5 bars positioned near the top of the footing. This reinforcement is based on soil characteristics and is not intended to be in lieu of reinforcement necessary to satisfy structural considerations. 5.2.3 Underpinning All existing footings to receive new loads should be underpinned. In addition, strong consideration should be given to underpinning any existing footings that will continue to support existing loads. Underpinning recommendations should be provided by the project structural engineer based on the geotechnical recommendations in this report. 5.2.4 i Foundation Excavation Observation It is recommended that alllfoundation excavations be approved by a representative from this office prior to forming or placement of reinforcing steel. 5.2.5 Settlement Characteristics The anticipated total and differential settlements for the proposed additions may be considered to be within tolerable limits provided the recommendations presented in this report are followed. It should be recognized that minor cracks normally occur in concrete .

Such cracks are not necessarily an indication of excessive vertical movements. 5.2.6 Expansion Characteristics The prevailing foundation soils are very highly expansive. The recommendations in this report reflect this condition. 5.3 FOUNDATION PLAN REVIEW The foundation plans should be ‘submitted to SCS&T for review to ascertain that the recommendations contained in this report have been implemented, and no revised recommendations are necessary due to change in the development scheme. 5.4 SEISMIC DESIGN FACTORS Provided below are seismic design factors applicable to the subject project. The seismic design factors were determined in accordance with the 1997 edition of the Uniform Building Code. Seismic Zone 4: Z=0.40 Seismic Source Type: B Soil Profile Type: SD Distance to Seismic Source: 8 kilometers Near-Source Factor N,=l .O Near-Source Factor N,=l ,l . Source Fault: Rose Canyon It is likely that the site will experience the effects of at least one moderate to large earthquake during the life of the proposed improvements. 5.5 INTERIOR CONCRETE SLABS-ON-GRADE Interior concrete slab-on-grade floors should have a thickness of at least 6 inches and be reinforced with at least No. 4 reinforcing bars placed at 12 inches on center each way. Slab reinforcement should be placed approximately at mid-height of the slab and extend at least 12 inches down into the footings. The slab should be underlain by a 4-inch blanket of clean, poorly graded, course sand or crushed rock. This <blanket should consist of 100 percent material passing the 1E2-inch screen and no more than 10 percent and 5 percent passing the #IO0 and #ZOO sieves, respectively. Where moisture sensitive floor coverings are planned, a 1 0-mil visqueen barrier should be placed over the sand layer. An additional 2-inch layer of sand should be placed over the visqueen to allow for proper concrete curing. It is our understanding that this moisture barrier will allow the transmission of approximately 6 to 12 pounds of moisture per c c c c c c Rick and Madeline McElroy PrODOSed McElrov Residence Additions January 21, 2003 SCS&TNs. 0211181-1R Paae 7 1000 square feet per day through the slab. If this amount of moisture is excessive, additional recommendations will be provided by this office. Moisture emission tests should be performed prior to the placement of floor coverings to ascertain whether moisture emission values are within the manufacturer’s specification limits. 5.6 EXTERIOR CONCRETE SLABS-ON-GRADE Exterior driveway and other concrete slabs should have a minimum thickness of 5 inches and should be reinforced with at least No. 4 bars at 12 inches on center each way. Joints should be placed in accordance with the American Concrete Institute (ACI) guidelines Section 3.13. Joints should be placed where cracks are anticipated to develop naturally. Alternative patterns consistent with ACI guidelines also can be used. The landscape architect can be consulted in selecting the final joint patterns to improve the aesthetics of the concrete slabs-on-grade. ’ A 1-inch maximum size aggregate concrete mix is recommended for exterior slabs. A waterlcement ratio of less than 0.6 is recommended. A lower water content will decrease the potential for shrinkage cracks. It is strongly suggested that the driveway concrete mix have a minimum compressive strength of 3,000 pounds-per-square-inch (psi). This suggestion is meant to address early driveway use prior to full concrete curing. Both coarse and fine aggregate should conform to the “Greenbook” Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction. It would be prudent to consult with a Materials Engineer regarding review of the concrete mix design, and to retain a Registered Special Inspector to observe placement of the concrete. i Special attention should be paid to the method of curing the concrete to reduce the potential for excessive shrinkage and resultant random cracking. It should be recognized that minor cracks occur normally in concrete slabs and foundations due to shrinkage during curing redistribution of stresses. Some shrinkage cracks may be expected. Such cracks are not necessarily an indication of vertical movements or structural distress. Factors that contribute to the amount of shrinkage that takes place in a slab-on-grade include joint spacing, depth, and design; concrete mix components; watedcement ratio and surface finishing techniques. According to the attached undated “Technical Bulletin’’ (see Appendix 6) published by the Southern California Rock Products Association and Southern California Ready Mixed Concrete Association, flatwork formed of high-slump concrete (high waterlcement ratio) utilizing 3/8-inch maximum size aggregate (”Pea Gravel Grout” mix) is likely to exhibit extensive c c c c c c Rick and Madeline McElroy January 21,2003 Page 8 Proposed McElroy Residence Additions SCS&TNo. 0211181-1R shrinkage and cracking. Cracks most often occur in random patterns between construction joints. 5.7 EARTH RETAINING WALLS 5.7.1 Foundations The recommendations provided in the foundation section of this report are also applicable to earth retaining structures. 5.7.2 Passive Pressure The passive pressure for the prevailing soil conditions may be considered to be 250 psf per foot of depth. This pressure may be increased by 113 for seismic loading. The cqefficient of friction for concrete to soil may be assumed to be 0.25 for the resistance to lateral movement. When combining frictional and passive resistance, the friction should be reduced by one-third. The upper 12 inches of soil should not be considered when calculating passive pressures for exterior walls. 5.7.3 Active Pressure The active soil pressure for the design of unrestrained and restrained earth retaining structures with level backfills may be assumed to be equivalent to the pressure of a fluid weighing 38 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). An additional 15 pcf should be added to the aforementioned values for 2: 1 (horizontal to vertical) sloping backfills. These pressures do not consider any surcharge loads. If any are anticipated, this office should be contacted for the necessary increase in soil pressure. These values also assume a granular and drained backfill condition. 5.7.4 Retaining Wall Subdrains and Waterproofing Retaining wall subdrains should be installed in accordance with the detail presented on Plate No. 7. Waterproofing specifications and details should be provided by the project architect. The geotechnical engineer should be requested to verify that retaining wall subdrains and waterproofing have been properly installed. 5.8 LIQUEFACTION POTENTIAL Based on, the findings of our. investigation and our knowledge of the soil conditions within the site vicinity, it is our opinion that the liquefaction potential of the soils underlying the site is negligible. c I L c 1-20 \ 21-50 Rick and Madeline McElroy - January 21,2003 Page 9 Proposed McElroy Residence Additions SCS&T NO. 0211181-1R Very Low Low 6. FIELD EXPLORATION Three test pits were excavated by the homeowner at the locations indicated on the attached Plate No. 1. The test pits were logged by a member of our engineering geology staff on December 6, 2002. These logs are presented on the following Plate Nos. 3 through 5. The soils are described in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System as illustrated on the attached simplified chart on Plate No. 2. In addition, a verbal textural description, the wet color, the apparent moisture and the density or consistency are provided. The density of I / granular soils js given as very loose, loose, medium dense, dense or very dense. The consistency of silts or clays is given as very soft, soft, medium stiff, stiff, very stiff, or hard. c- c- Disturbed and "undisturbed" samples of typical and representative soils were obtained and returned to the laboratory for testing. 7. LABORATORY TESTING c Laboratory tests were performed in accordance with the generally accepted American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods or suggested procedures. A brief description of the tests performed is presented below: C. c a) CLASSIFICATION: Field classifications were verified in the laboratory by visual examination. The final soil classifications are in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System. c b) EXPANSION INDEX TESTS: An expansion index test on a remolded sample was performed on a representative sample of soils likely to be present at finish grade. The test was performed on the portion of the sample passing the ##I standard sieve. The sample was brought to optimum moisture content and then dried back to a constant moisture content for 12 hours at 230 5 9 degrees Fahrenheit. The specimen was brought to 50 percent saturation, compacted in two layers in a 4-inch diameter mold, and then trimmed to a height of l-inch. The specimen was placed in a consolidometer with porous stones at the top and bottom, a total normal load of 12.63 pounds was placed (144.7 psf), and the sample was allowed to consolidate for a period of 10 minutes. The sample was allowed to become saturated, and the change in vertical movement was recorded until the rate of expansion became nominal. The expansion index is reported herein as the total vertical displacement times the fraction of the sample passing the #4 sieve times 1000.

The recommendations contained in the accompanying report and/or the attached. special provisions are a part of the Recommended Grading Specifications and shall supersede the provisions contained hereinafter in the case of conflict. These specifications shall only be used in conjunction with the geotechnical report for which they are a part. No deviation from these specifications will'be allowed, except where specified in the geotechnical report or in other written communication signed by the Geotechnical Engineer. OBSERVATION AND TESTING SCS&T shall be retained as the Geotechnical Engineer to observe and test the earthwork in accordance with these specifications. It will be necessary that the Geotechnical Engineer or his . representative provide adequate observation so that he may provide his opinion as to whether or not the work was accomplished as specified. It shall be the responsibility of the contractor to assist the Geotechnical Engineer and to keep him appraised of work schedules, changes and new information and data so that he may provided these opinions. In the event that any unusual conditions not covered by the special provisions or preliminary geotechnical report are encountered during the grading operations. The Geotechnical Engineer shall be contacted for further recommendations. , If, in the opinion of the Geotechnical Engineer, substandard conditions are encountered, such as questionable or unsuitable soil, unacceptable moisture content, inadequate compaction, adverse weather, etc.; construction should be stopped until the conditions, are remedied or corrected or he shall recommended rejection of this work. Tests used to determine the degree of compaction should be performed in accordance with the following American Society for Testing and Materials test methods: c c c Rick and Madeline McElroy January 21,2003 Appendix A, Page A2 Proposed McElroy Residence Additions ', SCS&T NO. 0271781-1R Maximum Density & Optimum Moisture Content - ASTM D 1557 Density of Soil In-Place - ASTM D 1556 or ASTM D 2922 All densities shall be expressed in terms of Relative Compaction as determined by the foregoing ASTM testing procedures. PREPARATION OF AREAS TO RECEIVE FILL All vegetation, brush and debris derived from clearing operations shall be removed, and legally disposed of. All areas disturbed by site grading should be left in a neat and finished appearance, free from unsightly debris. \ After clearing or benching the natural ground, the areas to be filled shall be scarified to a depth of 6 inches, brought to the proper moisture content, compacted and tested for the specified minimum degree of compaction. All loose soils in excess of 6 inches thick should be removed to firm natural ground, which is defined as natural soils which possesses an in-situ density of at least 90 percent of its maximum dry'density. I When the slope of the natural ground receiving fill exceeds 20 percent (5 horizontal units to I vertical unit), the original ground shall be stepped or benched. Benches shall be cut into firm competent formational soils. The lower bench shall be at least 10 feet wide or 1-1/2 times the equipment width, whichever is greater, and shall be sloped back into the hillside at a gradient of not less than two percent. All other benches should be at least 6 feet wide. The horizontal portion of each bench shall be compacted prior to receiving fill as specified herein for compacted natural ground. Ground slopes flatter than 20 percent shall be benched when considered necessary by the Geotechnical Engineer. Any abandoned buried structures encountered during grading operations must be totally removed. All underground utilities to be abandoned beneath any proposed structure should be removed from within 10 feet of the structure and properly capped off. The resulting depressions from the above-described procedure should be backfilled with acceptable soil that is compacted to the requirements of the Geotechnical Engineer. This includes, but is not limited to, septic tanks, fuel tanks, sewer lines or leach lines, storm drains and water lines. Any buried structures or utilities no to be abandoned should be brought to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer so that he may determine if any special recommendation will be necessary. All water wells, which will be abandoned, should be backfilled and capped in accordance to the requirements set forth by the Geotechnical Engineer. The top of the cap should be at least 4 feet below finish grade or 3 feet below the bottom of footing whichever is greater. The type of cap will depend on c c c c c c c c - c Rick and Madeline McElroy January 21,2003 Appendix A, Page A3 Proposed McElroy Residence Additions SCS&TNo. 0211181-IR the diameter of the well and should be determined by the Geotechnical Engineer and/or a qualified Structural Engineer. FILL MATERIAL Materials to be placed in the fill shall be approved by the Geotechnical Engineer and shall be free of vegetable matter and other deleterious substances. Granular soil shall contain sufficient fine material to fill the voids. The definition and disposition of oversized rocks and expansive or detrimental soils are covered in the geotechnical report or Special Provisions. Expansive soils, soils of poor gradation, or soils with low strength characteristics may be thoroughly mixed with other soils to provide satisfactory fill material, but only with the explicit consent of the Geotechnical Engineer. Arly import material shall be approved by the Geotechnicai Engineer before being brought to the site. \ PLACING AND COMPACTION OF FILL Approved fill material shall be placed in areas prepared to receive fill in layers not to exceed 6 inches in compacted thickness. Each layer shall have a uniform moisture content in the range that will allow the compaction effort to be efficiently applied to achieve the specified degree of compaction. 'Each layer shall be uniformly compacted to the specified minimum degree of compaction with equipment of adequate size to economically compact the layer. Compaction equipment should either be specifically designed for soil compaction or of proven reliability. The minimum degree of compaction to be achieved is specified in either the Special Provisions or the recommendations contained in the preliminary geotechnical investigation report. c c c When the structural fill material includes rocks, no rocks will be allowed to nest and all voids must be carefully filled with soil such that the minimum degree of compaction recommended in the Special Provisions is achieved. The maximum size and spacing of rock permitted in structural fills and in non-structural fills is discussed in the geotechnical report, when applicable. Field observation and compaction tests to estimate the degree of compaction of the fill will be taken by the Geotechnical Engineer or his representative. The location and frequency of the tests shall be at the Geotechnical Engineer's discretion. When the compaction test indicates that a particular layer is at less than the required degree of compaction, the layer shall be reworked to the satisfaction of the Geotechnical Engineer and until the desired relative compaction has been obtained. - L- TECHNICAL BULLETIN 3/6” AGGREGATE “PEA GRAVEL GROUT” MIX FOR USE IN FLATWORK. *‘Pea gravel” pump mixes are being used in many locations in Southern California forslabs on grade. Many complaincs of ‘poor’ concrete, mainly cracking, are due to the use of these mixes. ne ease of placing this “concrete” at long distances from the rczdy-mix truck with minimum manpower has been the primary reason for the increased use of small line grout pumps. Slabs made of high slump concrete improperly cured in any environment, with or without reinforcement, will shrink excessively and crack extensively. These mixes tend to shrink more than conventional 1” aggregate concrete mixes because of the need for-more sand or fines and water to make the mix more fluid or pumpable. This increased shrinkage will cause more cracking. Minimum cement contents are usually ordered for economy.This makes for a higher wate;/cernent ratio that also leads to lower strengths and more cracking. . Freedom from random cracking is desired for all concretefloors. The degree to which random shrinkage cracking can be reduced is improved by using concrete with a minimum shrinkage potential that contains the maximum size of coarse aggregate and the maximum amount of coarse aggegate consistent with placing and finishing methods. A larger 2ggregate size permits a lower water content in the concrete which resurts in less shrinkage of the ccment paste.
